October 30, 2010

Muhyiddin: We (government) are approving this allocation because there are thousands of Muslims here (Batu Sapi).

SANDAKAN, Oct 30 — Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin today announced the provision of a RM5 million government allocation for building a new mosque in Batu Sapi near here.

He said with the building of the new mosque, Muslims in Batu Sapi could perform their mosque obligations in comfort.

“We (government) are approving this allocation because there are thousands of Muslims here (Batu Sapi). We are able to do so because we have the authority and capability,” he said when performing the ground-breaking ceremony for a People’s Housing Project in Lupak Meluas near here today.

The project involves the building of 500 units of houses costing between RM80,000 and RM100,000 a unit and is scheduled to be completed in two years.

Having three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and living room besides electricity and water supply, the houses are meant for squatters in the area and will be rented out for RM124 a month.

According to Muhyiddin, only the Barisan Nasional (BN) government could deliver the goods unlike Opposition parties like Parti Keadilan Rakyat and the Sabah Progressive Party which he said were only good at “promising the moon and the stars”.

As such, he urged the peole to continue backing the BN so as to ensure a bright future for themselves and their children.

Later, when speaking at function with civil servants here, Muhyiddin, who is also Education Minister, announced that the federal government had agreed to approve a request from the Sabah government for an allocation to build another secondary school in Batu Sapi.

He said cost of building the school, Sekolah Menengah Batu Sapi 2, estimated to be between RM30 million and RM40 million had been included in the 10th Malaysia Plan and that the project was in line with Sandakan becoming an education hub in Sabah.

“Besides this, RM2.5 million has also been allocated to assist schools in Batu Sapi to purchase needed equipment and upgrade their facilities,” he said. — Bernama
